Member meeting Thursday, January 7th
We’re not wasting anytime this year! Our first member meeting is this Thursday and we have lots to do. We’ll be discussing the recent events at Tonawanda Coke and then beginning to look to the future. We’re closer than ever to cleaning up Tonawanda Coke, but we know they are only a small piece of the air pollution in our neighborhood. That’s why we are going to create an “air pollution platform”: a list of actions we want taken by elected officials and regulatory agencies to reduce pollution and improve our quality of life. Come with your ideas – people know best what they need in their neighborhood!
If you want a little bit of light reading before the meeting, you can check out our summary of the Tonawanda Air Quality Study released by the DEC in October.
As usual, the meeting at at the Sheridan Parkside Community Center, 169 Sheridan Parkside Drive, at 7:00 pm. We’ll be there an hour!
Dear CACWNY;
Having worked for JD Crane last year, you will need more ammunition that I may provide CACWNY.
In the interest of downwind communities and their health and well being you are correct in thinking that Tonawanda Coke is not the only air polluter on River Road.
I will attempt to attend your first January 7th meeting…

Inspect the grounds surrounding the plant which is mostly wooded and fields and you will not find a rodent, spider, snake etc. Then sample the ground within the plant. polluted water and chemicals were dumped to the ground each shift while I worked for a few years as a power plant engineer.
